I think it's legal. Bad practice maybe but legal.

The judgement would have ordered payment 'forthwith' (immediately) on 6 Jan.

So there was a default at the time the warrant was issued (9 Jan) in that you hadn't paid 'forthwith'

I thought the compliance fee was £75 so don't understand the maths here.

(earlier you said 459.10 which would be 376.85 + 82.25)

Yes, you now pay the bailiff/court. If you pay by 6 Feb the entry still does not appear on your credit file

Thank you

The figures on these letters are

Judgement

£97 costs
total £376.85 forthwith

Warrant of control

total to pay (including fees) £456.10

Thank you

That's what I'm tending towards in the absence of the CPR stating any time-limits (that I can see). I'd agree that it is bad practice though much legal stuff is.

I was wondering about the maths as well.

Could you look at the figures posted on my last post & let me know if you think a mistake has been made?
Also should I not have been informed of a court date? Especially if I had to pay on the day?

Should any of this have come by recorded/signed for delivery? As this has all come normal post, and delayed :-(

It would have been sent out to the address supplied to the court - that should be either an address supplied by the defendant or the last known address.

No need to send recorded delivery.
